Possible Causes
Corrupted firmware on Fisher & Paykel control module, Power surge damage, Faulty main control PCB, Loose control board connectors
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the washer before accessing the control panel.
- Power reset: Leave the washer unplugged for at least 5 minutes to allow capacitors to discharge. Plug back in and try again.
- Inspect control connections: Remove the control panel cover. Check all ribbon cables and harness connectors to the main PCB. Reseat them carefully.
- Check for visible damage: Look for burnt components, bulging capacitors, or scorch marks on the control board. If present, the board must be replaced.
- Surge protection: If the error followed a storm or power event, consider using a surge protector after replacing the board.
- Board replacement: Order the exact Fisher & Paykel main control module for your model and swap it, transferring any wiring one connector at a time to avoid miswiring.
